The role of forest genetic resources in responding to biotic and abiotic factors in the context of anthropogenic climate change [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The current distribution of forest genetic resources on Earth is the result of a combination of natural processes and human actions. Over time, tree populations have become adapted to their habitats including the local ecological disturbances they face ...

Biodiversity and its restoration in limestone quarries: a review

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Limestone quarries impact natural areas, and they are spreading in relation to human population growth. Little is known about the impact of limestone quarries and their restoration on biodiversity. Objectives This review aims to provide an overview of how biodiversity is assessed in limestone quarries, how it impacts biodiversity,

Characteristics and evolutionary process of low-mature paleo-subsurface rivers in carbonate sequences and controls on hydrocarbon accumulation in the northern Tarim Basin, NW China

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
Paleo-subsurface rivers can serve as high-quality reservoir spaces for hydrocarbon accumulation within the carbonate sequence stratigraphy. However, the characteristics and evolutionary process of the typical low-mature paleo-subsurface rivers are rarely

A Global Review of Microplastic Contamination in Groundwater: Empirical Evidence and Latin American Perspectives

open access: yesWater and Environment Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The presence of microplastics (MPs) in groundwater has emerged as a significant concern due to their environmental impact and the threat they pose to vital water resources, groundwater being one of the most important freshwater sources in the world.

Assessing multifunctional mountain landscape in an Eastern European framework

open access: yesGeographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 2, May 2026.
The research introduces the Biocultural Resilience Index (BRI), a novel tool for assessing multifunctional landscape sustainability. By integrating biological, cultural, and socio‐economic indicators, the BRI identifies vulnerable areas and informs strategies for sustainable management.

Effect of soil waterlogging on below-ground biomass allometric relations in Norway spruce [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
An increasing importance is assigned to the estimation and verification of carbon stocks in forests. Forestry practice has several long-established and reliable methods for the assessment of aboveground biomass; however we still miss accurate predictors ...

Nutrient addition, but not vertebrate predator exclusion, shapes arthropod communities and herbivory in a temperate forest

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, Page 303-321, April 2026.
We experimentally manipulated top‐down (predator exclusion) and bottom‐up (fertilisation) forces in a temperate forest understory to test effects on arthropod densities, body sizes and herbivory. Predator exclusion had no detectable effect on arthropod density, herbivory damage or body size, whereas fertilisation increased herbivory damage and ...

Geochemical characteristics and paleoenvironmental significance of karst reservoirs in Gaoyuzhuang-Wumishan Formations of Jixian System in Xiong ‘an New Area and its adjacent areas

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
A set of thick carbonate rocks is developed in Gaoyuzhuang-Wumishan Formations of Jixian System in Xiong ‘an New Area and its adjacent areas, with diverse dolomite rock types, complex reservoir space, and large differences in physical properties, which ...

Plant interactions, climate, and the reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) interdependently shape vegetation in northern Finland

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract There is limited understanding on how complex interdependencies among large herbivore grazing, competitive and facilitative interactions among plants, and the changes in temperatures and precipitation shape northern boreal and subarctic ecosystems.
